Auto Union cars

Initially, only racing cars were produced under this brand. They won 25 races between 1935 and 1937. And in 1958, model 1000 was produced. Available body styles included a saloon, estate car, cabrio and coupe. The sporty modification of this model was named 1000 Sp. It was offered as a coupe or roadster, with 5004 and 1640 cars produced correspondingly.

Advantages of cars of this make

• High quality of components. Particularly, reliable two-stroke engines were used in passenger cars. They provided a higher comfort level during operation than most power units of this type. Reliability of the engine was played up in the advertising: “Only seven moving parts!”.
• Attractive design. For example, one of 1000 Sp advantages were its body lines: fin-like elements were mounted in the back. While chrome accents on the steering wheel, dashboard, and radio were the distinctive feature of its interior.
• Unconventional technical solutions. In 1934, Type A racing car was created which had an engine mounted behind the driver. This offered a possibility to improve weight distribution between axles. Moreover, such design allowed to mount the driver’s seat lower than usual.
